Abstract
The Dynamic Aerospace Vehicle Exchange Markup Language (DAVE-ML) is a text-based file format intended for encoding the principal elements of a flight simulation model for an aerospace vehicle. It is based on two other open standards: the Extensible Markup Language (XML) version 1.1 and the Mathematical Markup Language (MathML) version 2.0, both products of the World Wide Web Consortium. DAVE-ML defines additional grammar (markup elements) to provide a domain-specific language capable of aerospace flight dynamics modeling, verification, and documentation.
This markup language represents the encoding format for ANSI/AIAA S-119-2011 Flight Dynamic Model Exchange Standard [AIAA11].
This is first release version of the reference manual for DAVE-ML syntax and
markup. DAVE-ML syntax is specified by the
DAVEfunc.dtd Document Type Definition (DTD) file;
the version number above refers to the version of the DAVEfunc.dtd.
DAVE-ML is an open standard developed by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) Modeling and Simulation Technical Committee (MSTC). Contact the author above for more information or comments regarding refinement of DAVE-ML.
